The thinnest iPhone announced: iPhone Air Türkiye price and features

Ersin Kılıç - The iPhone Air , at just 5.6mm thick, has become the thinnest iPhone ever. CEO Tim Cook introduced the device, emphasizing "professional performance in a thin and lightweight design."

iPhone Air Display Features

The new iPhone Air features a 6.5-inch ProMotion display. It's safe to say this model is generally positioned as a replacement for the Plus model. With the 17 series, the company has ditched the Plus and Max models and created a different lineup. Offering up to a 120Hz refresh rate and 3,000 nits of peak brightness, the Air model features Apple's most durable design to date. The phone features a ceramic shield and a double-sided titanium frame.

At the heart of the device is Apple's latest A19 Pro processor. The company also developed a new C1x modem that offers twice the speed of its predecessor. Apple also brings Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6, and Thread support with the new N1 chipset.

What About the Battery?

Of course, when such a thin body is introduced, battery performance is the first thing that comes to mind. Despite its slim build, Apple claims the iPhone Air offers "all-day battery life" and supports up to 40 hours of video playback with the dedicated MagSafe charger. The device only supports eSIM, a decision reportedly made to free up more battery space. Furthermore, the adaptive power mode introduced with iOS 26 will also help extend battery life.

Camera features

The iPhone Air features a 48MP dual-camera system on the back. It also includes a 12MP telephoto lens. On the front, there's an 18MP selfie camera with Center Stage support. With this new camera system, Apple allows you to record video using both the front and rear cameras simultaneously.

Türkiye price and release date

The iPhone Air will have a price starting at ₺97,999 for 256GB of storage. The device's official release date is September 19. Prices in Türkiye for all capacities are as follows:

iPhone 17 Air 256 GB: 97.999 TL iPhone 17 Air 512 GB: 109.999 TL

iPhone 17 Air 1 TB: 121.999 TL

The iPhone Air comes in black, white, beige, and light blue. Apple also introduced an ultra-thin clear case for the device, a bumper case made of reinforced polycarbonate material, and a new shoulder strap accessory.

This launch also coincides with the release of iOS 26. The new version introduces a design language called "Liquid Glass," which gives icons and menus a more transparent, bubble-like appearance. However, during the beta phase, this design divided some users.
